Summary
German Barquero is an AI research scientist with 11 years of experience, currently working at Meta Superintelligence Labs after a research internship at Meta. His background blends rigorous academic training (PhD work in computer vision) with practical R&D across face tracking, behavior prediction in dyadic interactions, and medical imaging projects at institutions like Universitat de Barcelona, EPFL exchanges, and CHUV. He has led development of production-grade tracking algorithms and organized a behavior prediction track for the DYAD ICCV'21 challenge, demonstrating both technical depth in RNNs/GANs/GNNs and community-oriented research leadership. Based in Zurich, he combines strong mathematical foundations with hands-on implementation experience spanning quantized models and object detectors—an unusual mix that lets him move ideas from dataset benchmarks to robust implementations.
